The Other Cars

(2013)

There are SUVs, there are Smarts, and then… then there are the other cars.

This is a work made of 25 pictures; cars are the main characters, “the other cars”. The ones you do not expect, the ones you should better demolish, the ones that consume too much, the old-fashioned ones, the ones that you even don’t know how they manage to start, but that are still there, parked along Milanese streets, some of them with a meek look, a sad face, others still with a proud and confident bearing. Those muzzles, those flanks, those headlights, those bumpers, those plates, and above all the owners of those vehicles, seem having a say on what we are experiencing, on this difficult period, between economic crisis and “globalization”.
